SUMMARY

Last year, Massachusetts enacted a comprehensive data security law intended to protect residents from identity theft. While many assumed that the law would be focused on protecting consumers, it broadly covers all businesses with employees in Massachusetts, not just those that collect customer information. Recent regulations impose significant compliance obligations on all employers and require action by the beginning of the year.

SUMMARY

We have been hearing a lot of buzz over the last few years about mobile advertising adding significant revenue to the wireless industry across the value chain.

Will it indeed significantly add to both the top and bottom lines or will it just be another revenue sliver? What must the industry and the players do to have this market sector grow?
